Selection Buttons
Beneath the display are 8 selection buttons. The buttons correspond to the lines of the display.
Each button selects the item on the corresponding line. The left button corresponds to line 1
(the top line). The rightmost button corresponds to line 8 (the bottom line).
Selection buttons can be used in any mode.
Modes of Operation
The panel operates in either X-Y mode or multi-destination (MD) mode. A single button (XY/MD)
can toggle between the modes. A third mode
— called “single-bus,” “single-destination,” or
“button-per-source” mode — can be emulated in either X-Y mode or MD mode.
The primary modes of operation are:
• X-Y mode — individual control of all router levels. Choose a destination, optionally choose
desired breakaway levels, choose a source, and press ‘Take’ to complete a desired route.
• Multi-destination mode — lets you control multiple destinations. The display shows destina-
tions and their sources. You can scroll through destination lists using the ‘Page Up’ and ‘Page
Down’ buttons. Select a destination using selection buttons, choose a source, and repeat for
all desired routes. Then press ‘Take’. Takes are “all level,” and breakaways cannot be per-
formed.
 A ‘Hold’ button allows you to select many MD destinations at once.
The secondary modes of panel operation are:
• Setup mode — where the NV9601 is freshly powered up, but disconnected from the panel
network. In this mode, you can preset the NV9601’s panel ID and perform a few diagnostic
tasks.
• Salvo mode — the operator presses a Salvo button to enter salvo mode where the display
lists both system salvos and local salvos. The operator may select a salvo and then the ‘Take’
button to execute a salvo. (The duration of a salvo is indeterminate.)
• Menu mode — pressing a Menu button places the NV9601 in “menu” mode. In menu mode,
the display shows a menu that changes as needed during menu operation. Operators pick
menu items using selection buttons.
• Information mode — pressing an ‘Information’ button (when there is information to display)
places the NV9601 in “information” mode. In information mode, the display reports informa-
tion such as level mappings.
 Information is available, for example, when a plus sign appears next to a level in the
display under X-Y mode.
Other modes of operation are:
• Hold mode — when the operator presses the ‘Hold’ button, hold mode becomes active and
when the operator presses it again, hold mode becomes inactive. See Hold on page 42.
• Save preset mode — when the operator presses the ‘Save Preset’ button, ‘Save Preset’ mode
becomes active and when the operator presses it again, ‘Save Preset’ mode becomes inac-
tive. See
Save Preset on page 47.
• Scroll mode — when the operator presses a ‘Scroll’ button, scroll mode becomes active and
the operator may scroll through lists of devices for a category (during category device selec-
tion). Note that scroll mode does not cause the display to scroll.
